- 🎥 Join Us for an Exclusive Dive into The Punisher Series!
Today, we’re diving deep into The Punisher series on Disney X, specifically the last episode of the first season.
John Bernthal IS the Punisher-no other versions count! We’ve met him at SHOT Show, and trust us, he’s as badass in person as he is on screen.
In this episode, we break down the iconic night fight scene between Frank Castle and Billy Russo, focusing on the amazing Seekin Precision NXP-8 rifle. Ever wondered why they used non-military firearms? We've got the inside scoop! Plus, we’ll explore how the guns in the series reflect the personalities of the characters-Billy’s clean and calculated KE Arms KE-15 vs. Frank’s raw and gritty NXP-8.
Get ready for an in-depth look at the design, the tech, and the reasons behind the firearm choices. We even touch on the real challenges of filming such intense scenes, from using real Trijicon Reap IR optics to the method training of the actors. This is a gun enthusiast’s dream discussion, packed with exclusive insights and behind-the-scenes details.

Why John Bernthal is the definitive Punisher

Speaking of lighting.....I CAN'T GET SEE THE GUN! Increase the lighting and, once again, prop the gun up so we can look at it!
I thoroughly enjoy watching you two guys. The back and forth is great. I hope more folks tune in.
I think A 4-wheel drive Chevy Astro van, murdered out, is perfect for the punisher.
Ray Stevenson is my favorite punisher.
He was actually a really good punisher The problem is the rest of the movie was trash
Tony Stark in the comics gave off vibes as if he was a care free playboy. That also how he kept up the illusion Iron Man was a different person, a body guard.
I would love to see you guys cover the Alec Baldwin rust scenario and hear how that affected your work.
The scene in season 1 when the Punisher was slaughtering the entire merc team with the G36c was one of my favourite moments in TV.. brought me back to my COD MW3 days online ...
The G36c is the sexiest gun ever made and I love it being used as a hero gun and not just a bad guy gun ..
Conroy is THE Batman and Hamill is THE Joker. Bale and Ledger are iconic as the Live Action Dark Knight and Clown Prince of Crime, but Conroy and Hamill were the voices for several generations of animation, videogames and more
1 Conroy v Hamill
2 Keaton v Nicholson
3 Bale v Ledger
The origin of the bat-nipples is that the director, Schumacher, felt the suits were to resemble Greek gods. Since statues of them have nipples...
Which could easily cause us to question if this movie was a bit 'grooming,' since the tone was changed since Burton's 2 movies to sell toys to kids.
"Doesn't count!" Over and over... !😂😂😂
Thomas janes punisher was excellent 😤
We need to get you into wagons. The magnum, the BMW and Benz estate wagons.
No way man, matt blacked out 90's suburban/Yukon xl lifted on 35's all kitted out
For some reason, I'm honestly surprised RoboCop wasn't like the first episode.
Awesome to see this firearm get attention! You can build an almost exact replica if you piece it together. The nxp8 from seekins is a bit different, but still badass.
Please do an episode on the terminal list
Ray Stevenson doesn't count?
I hope you guys are joking...
I never liked Bale as Batman, but I love that Trilogy of movies. I think, had that script been written earlier, with Burton as director and a different Batman, it could have been even better. But hands down, Ledger as that Joker... absolutely the best.
In its day, the most shocking good guy scene was. 1982 Magnum P.I. S3 E2 Did You See the Sunrise (pt 2).
Dismiss the Thomas Jane punisher at your own risk... He did a great job as more depressed and hopeless everyman punisher ... I related to him more than the TV shows which were also great...
War Zone was comical but still fun
👍
Love the Punisher series. As far as the Kingpin Disney turned him into a chump in Hawkeye. That girl Hawkeye put away Kingpin with ease pretty much destroying the Kingpin character.
If they brought back Bain, maybe they pick an actually large human.
Look at the destruction of Star Wars....forget Disney.
I love this content, but every time you answer a question it opens up 100 more.
John Berthal and Thomas Jane were both awesome Punishers in their own way ...
Stevenson and Dolph were ridiculous and over the top of course lol...
As for Batman
Christian Bale is literally Bruce Wayne ... No arguments
But I will admit the newer Batman with Pattinson had better hand to hand fighting and he was prehaps a better Batman ... But a TERRIBLE Emo Bruce Wayne lol
Heath Ledger and Phoenix were both perfect as the Joker in diffrent ways ...
Leto should never be discussed in any serious conversation lol...
Michael Keaton was solid for the time, but doesnt hold a candle to Bale ....
Kilmer was a disaster and Clooney was a meme hahahaha... The Clooney Batman makes Punisher War Zone look like an Oscar winner ...
Method acting is NOT acting. If you have to become the character, you aren't acting anymore. Sir Ben Kingsley put if perfectly. Real actors can go back to being themselves when the director yells cut.
Best Batman goes to Ben Affleck. Just more accurate when compared to the comics. The Dark Knight trilogy had the best villains.
The reason why Batman forever and Batman and Robin batsuits have nipples is because the director of both of those movies George Schumacher is a very eccentric and gay director It was actually his call to have nipples on all of the suits besides batgirls obviously
Bernthal is NOT the definitive Punisher. He's Emo Punisher.
Short box trucks are pavement princesses. Buy a regular box, then build out to a TRX. It will cost you a lot of money, but end up with something useful.
